MacArthur's Return Strategy and Amphibious Assaults Described
The piece outlines General MacArthur's Pacific plan using amphibious "pearls" to seize airfields and split Japanese forces, with Tacloban and Leyte as focal points. It notes the combined Sixth Army operations, possible landings at Davao Cebu Negros Mindoro and Samar, and the risk of a Luzon mass assault if air bases lag. It closes with a stark vision of Bataan and Corregidor veterans seeking vengeance, and a late note about Jay Peak views spanning three states and Montreal.
